We understand this year may be slightly different due to the pandemic, however, there are still plenty of ways you can get involved with online events, webinars, putting up posters, supporting and sharing on social media and even starting conversations around reporting Hate Crime.

These are some of the ways people have got involved with National Hate Crime Awareness week in previous years.

• People put their Hands up for Challenging Hate – we were inundated with photos; see the Galleries page to see some of them
• Candlelit vigils were held across the country, including London, Sussex, Devon, Suffolk and Berkshire.
• There was plenty of coverage in the media and a huge campaign on Social Media!

In past years, we’ve been overwhelmed with the amount of support, and would like to thank everybody for their letters and statements, including our Patron, Baroness Lawrence, former Prime Minister David Cameron and many other senior politicians.

Our thanks also go out to all those who have been involved in, planning and attending events across the country, and for those who organised and stood vigil to remember all those affected by Hate.  You can see photos of the service can be found on our Galleries page.

So, let’s get ready for National Hate Crime Awareness Week 2021 and make it one of the most successful ever!
